RK Požarevac - RK Partizan 21:21

We played a draw against Požarevac, but it is not a problem at all, because we still more or less surely arrive at the play-off of the championship. The home team was on the lead in the half-time (13:9), but in the second half they could thank most of all their goalkeeper that the end result was a draw and they didn’t end up with a huge defeat.
Goalkeeper Arsić had 19 (nineteen) saves during this match. We put his goal line under fire in the second half.
Soon before the end it looked very much that Požarevac would be the winner of the day. They were on the lead to 21:20 with Tica’s goal. Mršulja wanted to equalize quickly, but he missed it, and the home team immediately made a counter-attack. We stole the ball and ran back up to their goal line. The defense line of Požarevac was too nervous, being very close to the end buzz, we got a penalty. Vanja Ilić stood on the 7-metre line. He shot, he scored, we equalized and we could celebrate.
